Cloud-Specific Compliance Issues

In a cloud environment, there are compliance issues that are not present in a traditional

on-premise IT environment.

Your cloud provider may need to meet the same regulatory policies and procedures

that you must comply with. You have to make sure that your contract with the

provider outlines how the provider will achieve compliance and enforcement, as well

as incur penalties for failures.

How does multitenancy in a cloud environment affect security and compliance

requirements?

Where is the cloud provider's data center located? You need to know where your

data is because you may have to comply with regulations.
